Benefits of technology

[0009]An object of the invention is to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks and others by making a sitting structure for children, fixable to a bicycle for adults, ensuring an excellent view for the child accommodated on the seat.
[0010]Another object of the invention is to provide a sitting structure for children, fixable to bicycles for adults, meeting the needs of the child, changing over time, in terms of safety and comfort.
[0011]A further object of the invention is to provide a sitting structure for children, fixable to bicycles for adults, ensuring a good comfort even to the adult who drives the bicycle to which the sitting structure in question is fixed.
[0016]Besides, the sitting structure according to the invention allows to have the child seat facing the back of the bicycle so as to offer full view to the child.
[0023]In addition, the child seat may comprise side walls preventing the child's legs from inserting dangerously between the spokes of the rear wheel of the bicycle.

Problems solved by technology

Even according to this second typology, the child sitting on the child seat is facing the front part of the bicycle but in this case, the child is sitting behind the adult who drives the bicycle so that it is not possible for the child to see forward and this position is not very stimulating for the child who is forced to turn his head sideways to see what is around him and places himself in an uncomfortable position.
However, in these cases there may be another problem, namely that the child needs to see the adult who is accompanying him and needs to feel secure and not abandoned.

[0030]A bracket 18 is fixed below the base structure 16 and develops perpendicularly to the base structure 16.

[0031]Besides, the bracket 18 has a lower end which is fixed by means of a connection device to the frame of the bicycle B in correspondence of the rear hub M.

[0032]The coupling of the bracket 18 to the base structure 16 is ensured also by an oblique bar 20 (120 in FIG. 2), the ends of the bar being welded to the bracket 18 and the base structure 16, respectively.

[0033]A first hinge 22 (122 in FIG. 2) is fixed to the front end of the base structure 16 and con...
